Blame, Etc.
by The Afghan Whigs
from the album Black Love
Tab by: R. Flahive

This is a really great song, and it's not too hard to play. Use a wah.
Listen to the cd to get the wah effects down.

Intro: A---2---0h2-0h2--0-----0h2-0----------------------
E-----------------------------3--2--0--0-2-3-2-0-- x4

D5\B5

Follow this pattern during the verse:
(B5) x x x | x x x A5|B5 x x x | x x x D5\|B5...
1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 | 1...etc.

Use the wah with the mutes. Follow the guitar pattern on
the cd or come up with your own funky rythyms.


VERSE 1:
D5 B5
My lust it ties me up in chains
A5 B5
My skin catches fire at the mention of your name
D5 B5
No matter what I tried 2 do
A5 B5
I could not lose it
D5 B5
Now I know my heart is being used
A5 B5
But what I'm not allowed to have I never could refuse
D5 B5
No matter what I tried 2 do
A5 B5
I stood accused

INTERLUDE:
F C Bm
I..... reply..... that I don't believe
A F C
I'm ever gonna die..... I don't
D
Do u?

CHORUS:
Bm A G A
Blame, deny, betray, divide
Bm A G A
A lie, the truth, which one shall I use?
Bm A
Whatcha gonna do? I know
G A
Whatcha gonna do? I know, I know, I know

(note: 1st guitar solos over the chorus. 2nd sticks to the chords.)

VERSE 2 (same as verse 1):
Your sanctimony is showing my dear
The acrimony hangs in the air
Beware of who u trust in this world
Beware the lies about 2 unfurl


INTERLUDE (same as above, repeated twice):
I..... reply..... that I don't believe
I'm ever gonna die..... I don't
Do u?
U..... were blind..... but u are not
Alone in this as I..... was once
Like u

CHORUS (same as before): Blame, etc.
